We start talking about the photographic section. The truth is that it has a very good configuration, but perhaps it is not the highlight of this smartphone. It has a quadruple main camera, with a 64 megapixel main sensor. In addition to a second ultra-wide angle camera with 8 megapixels, which also performs the macro photography function, and a third telephoto sensor, with a maximum 20X zoom (digital) with 12 megapixel resolution. We also find a ToF lens for depth of field.
The front camera is dual, and the truth is that it looks very interesting. On the one hand, we find a 32 megapixel main sensor, as well as a secondary camera with 8 megapixels for wide-angle selfies.
Samsung panel with 90 Hz
Where we do not see any type of clipping is on the screen. Realme has opted for a Samsung panel with AMOLED technology. The screen has a size of 6.44 inches in Full HD + resolution. It has a very wide format, 20: 9, as well as a frequency of 90 Hz and 180 sampling. That is, we will notice a more fluid movement when navigating the interface or playing games.
In terms of performance, we find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, an eight-core 7-nanometer chip accompanied by different versions of RAM and internal storage. The base version has a configuration of 8 GB and 128 GB of internal memory. There is also another version with the same RAM capacity, but with 256 GB of internal storage. The most powerful version has 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The RAM technology is LPDDR5 and it also includes UFS 3.0 speed on the internal storage. To prevent the terminal from getting hot when playing games, it includes a liquid cooling system with a small vapor chamber to dissipate heat.
5G connection
The Realme X50 Pro 5G has a single variant with 5G connectivity. That is, we will not have to pay more to be able to have a version with a specific module that provides us with compatibility with 5G networks, Of course, in Spain only Vodafone offers 5G coverage. According to Realme, the terminal can reach download speeds of up to 3.45GB. The battery is 4,200 mAh and has a 64W fast charge, which fully charges the terminal in about 35 minutes, according to the brand. It also comes with Android 10 and Realme UI, the company's customization layer.
Price and availability
The Realme X50 Pro has been announced in Spain and can be purchased next April. There are three different prices for the different versions of RAM and storage. It will be available in red and green.
- Realme X50 Pro 5G with 8 GB + 128 GB: 600 euros
- Realme X50 Pro 5G with 8 GB + 256 GB: 670 euros
- Realme X50 Pro 5G with 12 GB + 256 GB: 750 euros
Between the most basic model and the most powerful there is a difference of 150 euros. Is it worth paying that extra price? It always depends on the use you are going to give the terminal. For example, if you are going to take advantage of the mobile for games or simply for day to day. Also depending on how much you want to have this mobile, since the 12 GB can be useful if you want to have the mobile for more than two years.
